Resisting the Running Back by Lisa Suzanne
5.0

I Got AN ARC

I LOVE THIS STORY! I mean you can never go wrong with Lisa’s books though. This is Miller, and Sophie’s story. Miller is Tanner’s twin brother, aka the Nash’s long lost twin half siblings for context. I highly recommend reading all of the brothers books if you haven’t including Lincoln’s which technically isn’t apart of this series.

This story starts out with Sophie breaking up with her boyfriend. He then goes and posts on Sophie’s online student portal and gets her in trouble by promoting her romance novels to her students under her name. You see Sophie has been writing romance novels under a secret pen name for a few years, and they are not appropriate for students. This gets her suspended under investigation. Who does she call because she’s in trouble? Her best friend Miller Banks. You see they have been friends since high school, although Miller has been totally in love with her since the beginning. So despite the fact it is his 30th birthday, and his twin brothers about to propose he drops everything and catches the next flight to Arizona to see Sophie without a second thought.

Once he gets to Sophie, and they discuss things through he convinces Sophie to move to San Diego to make her career as a romance novel author a full time role. They use the cover story of Miller and Sophie are engaged to her mom. Miller’s thought process through it all is maybe I can convince her to give us an actual chance.

Throughout all of the up’s and downs, Sophie begins to gain feelings making Miller a happy person. We see the love between these two truly develop, the chemistry no shocker is electric. There is a lot of ups, and downs until they get there happy ending. Things are not all sunshine, and roses especially for a while where Miller starts to pull away from Sophie over some issues.

Anyway, 5 stars, highly recommend. I could read not only this book, but all of Lisa’s books over and over again, so I suggest checking this out, and any other of her books.
